High-pressure die casting machine Ecoline DS

for automobilesfor aluminum

Overview
The Ecoline DS die-casting machine offers locking forces from 3400 to 9000 kN for production of aluminium and magnesium parts. It pairs a 210-bar injection unit, a proven 3-platen toggle clamping system and integrated digital services (Bühler Insights) to increase productivity, repeatability and cell availability.

Key benefits

• Maximized uptime: digital tools and dashboards provide transparent process analysis and downtime insights to improve cell availability.
• Reliable, repeatable production: proven toggle design and real-time shot control deliver stable results across applications.
• Higher yield: advanced filling control, multi-point settings and braking function reduce scrap and improve first-pass quality.

Highlight features

• Industry 4.0 ready: Bühler Insights Die Casting Dashboard for machine, cell and foundry performance and Downtime Analysis.
• 210-bar injection unit with proportional control for high-speed, high-pressure filling and process compensation.
• Single-circuit hydraulic system with piston accumulator and integrated intensifier for fast phase changes and repeatability.
• 3-platen toggle clamping and double-cylinder hydraulic ejector for parallel ejection and long-term stability.
• Configurable options: built-in core-pull hydraulics, squeeze pins, vacuum systems and peripheral integration.
• Integrated touch-screen operator station for intuitive control and rapid changeovers.
• Central automation: synchronized control of machine and peripherals to optimise cycle time and throughput.
